Free, two minutes

When life gets heavy, which setting runs first?

Your body has four default settings it reaches for under load. Eight questions, two minutes, no right answers. You will get the setting that shows up first for you, one practice to try today, and a way to see the whole map. Self OS is education and self-reflection, not therapy or medical care. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 now.

1When something goes wrong, I tighten up and take charge, even when no one asked me to.

2I argue the point until it is settled, or replay the argument until it is.

3When I am stressed, I get busier. Sitting still feels wrong.

4I feel like I am running out of time, even on an ordinary day.

5When it is too much, I go quiet and heavy, and simple things will not start.

6Hours can disappear into a screen when I am overwhelmed.

7I say yes before I have checked whether I mean it.

8I can read everyone's mood in the room except my own.
